My mother has been moved from Jenni-Lynn Senior Living because she was trying to get out. She stayed there a week. The people were friendly. They had exercise activities, sing-alongs, trivia, and contests. They had a patio, an enclosed courtyard, and screened-in porch. It had a homey feeling.

I went to see Jenni-Lynn Senior Living. I saw the main building which is where the entertainment and the dining areas are. The dining area was small, unlike some of the ones I have seen. It had about 6 to 10 tables and 3-4 chairs around each table. It was clean, which I am very particular about. The tables were clean, the chairs were back underneath the tables, and I could smell lunch. I think it was the assisted living part because many of the residents were in wheelchairs. I like that they g...

We toured Jenni-Lynn Senior Living. It looked very comfortable. The people were very warm and caring, and I was very impressed with it. The apartment was somewhat small. We looked at one that had a living room, bathroom, and bedroom, but my friend would not stay in his room or apartment all day long. They had lots of activities scheduled. They had a nice calendar of activities. They have three meals a day and three snacks. So I was very impressed. Their dining area looked very nice. There was al...

I toured Jenni-Lynn Senior Living. I think it is older than the other facility. It was just a different environment, different walls, different lighting, and just older stuff. The staff was very nice, and she knew what she was talking about. They had a barbershop. She showed me where it was, but I didn't get to see it. The rooms at Jenni-Lynn for a single person were better than the rooms at the other facility.

I went to Jenni-Lynn Senior Living. The tour was very informative. The area was kind of secluded, but not too far off the main road. The housing options were viewable. It was very open, so they allowed us to go in and view how we would be living. The staff was very informative, answered all the questions we asked, and provided other options for us, too. For people who need care, they have their own section, and then the people who are trying to be independent are separate.

I went to Jenni-Lynn Senior Living. It was excellent for all. I think it's in a good location. The staff was awesome. And I saw somebody I hadn't seen in 30 years. I asked if I could visit with them, and they said, yeah. And he told me, he loves the place. He's been there for a year.

I liked Jenni-Lynn, but it was a little bit expensive. The staff was friendly and polite. They have a little bit more things to do. I've seen an exercise room, a courtyard, an activity room, and a dining area, and they had a nice little sitting area outside the front when you come in. It was pretty nice. It is not far from restaurants, maybe about a mile or two. It's a pretty good location. The room size was average.

I went to Jenni-Lynn Senior Living. They go from level one through four, but they don't do the most serious senior needs. They only offer very low assistance up to pretty high levels of assistance. It was very positive. The people were very nice and kind. The people that lived there seemed very happy. They had a cafeteria, an activity room, a physical therapy room, a veranda, and a place where people could go out. They had porches and things like that, and everything was clean. It was very neat ...

We visited Jenni-Lynn Senior Living and we were very impressed with it. It was an older facility, but they're doing a lot of updating. They're changing the furniture. They're taking up the carpets and putting in vinyl floors. I thought it was very clean and very nicely kept. Everybody appeared to be treated equally. The staff member was very informed. She knew what she was talking about. She was familiar with all of the rooms, and she even made suggestions on the two-bedroom apartment that would...

I had a tour of Jenni-Lynn Senior Living. It was fine. It was a great place. The living conditions were good. The staff was good, but my friend just couldn't afford it. Everything was great with the place, but it started at $2600, and that was without care. She was a type 2 or something and that was going to be another $750, and then there was going to be another fee for this and that, and it was just going to end up being way too much. The staff were good. The rooms were studios. They weren't l...

We went to Jenni-Lynn Senior Living. When you walk in, it was not pleasing aesthetically to the eye. It was dingy and old, and it gave the appearance of being unkempt. The person there, Miss Beverly, was very kind. She took us for a tour and we stayed open-minded. The tour was lovely. She answered every question on the tour. She showed us common areas, all the work, and everything. They had had a person fall and they were treating that person, and we saw how they work. As we walked throughout th...

I didn't see a whole lot of staff at Jenni-Lynn Senior Living, nor did I see a whole lot of care. The residents seemed happy and were content looking. They said they have occasional outings. I like that it was small and there were not many residents there and it seemed real homey. They were in the process of remodeling.

Jenni-Lynn Senior Living is a clean place. All the common areas are spacious and they have outdoor garden areas, which I think my mother would enjoy. It is kind of a quaint little place. They have a front porch with rocking chairs, the people were very nice, and the person who gave the tour was very informative. The rooms were clean. They're not huge or anything, but I didn't expect them to be in a situation like that. They just had finished remodeling the rooms and they were about to start rem...

Jenni-Lynn Senior Living was an older facility with older furnishing. I didn't find it bright and welcoming. I saw some activities going on where a staff member was working with another resident. They have remodeled the interior of the room, and the bathrooms were very nice and clean. I think they were about to get ready to remodel the exterior of the rooms, too. In other words, paint the doors, put down new carpet in the hallway, and things like that. I am just not sure if it would have been a ...

I had an in-person tour of Jenni-Lynn Senior Living. The tour went well. They took me through all the different areas where the residents live. She showed me the dining area and a recreation-type room. She showed me the different types of rooms: semi-private and private. She told me all the activities that the residents are able to participate in. Basically, it was a good tour. I enjoyed it. The place was neat and clean. The residents that I saw seemed happy and comfortable in the environment. T...

We looked at the independent side of Jenni-Lynn Senior Living. The layout was nice and it's really cute. It's sort of compact so there's not a lot of travel because it's not a huge campus and it's relatively small. The staff seemed to be very polite and very engaging. The cottages were really cute and I thought they were just adorable. They're almost like homes. They give the residents a nice amount of space but not too much where they'd be overwhelming for cleanup. It's nice and I fell in love ...

Jenni-Lynn Senior Living was great. The best thing about it is that it has a garage. They're independent living, and it looked like a house cut in half. One side is for one person, and then the other side is for another person. Everybody looked happy there. The staff was nice. They were playing bingo when I was there. All the rooms had wood floors. I saw a one-bedroom because I didn't need more than that. They were very well maintained. They have a library, but the biggest amenity to me is the g...

My mother has lived at Jenni Lynn since August of 2019. Our family has been very pleased with the care she receives. Covid has been tough on everyone, but I can tell you that Mom is loved and cared for. She often tells me how good the food is. The staff has gone above and beyond at making sure the residents feel loved during this unprecedented time. I am very grateful for them and their love for the residents.

I have a relative who has been living at Jenni Lynn for a few months now and we have nothing but positive feedback. Keep in mind this is the time of Covid19 so things obviously are a bit different. Having said that, senior leadership at JL seems to create a very caring environment and does a really good job of communicating to family/associated parties. The feedback I get from my relative: (1) the food is terrific. (2) I feel safe and cared for. (3) I am enjoying getting to know new people. Plac...

My Mom started in the independent living. She was able to go to the assisted living center for any activities they had each day. She normally had lunch and dinner there. We recently had to move her to assisted living at Jenni-Lynn’s. They do a great job of caring for her. We don’t have to worry about whether she is taking her medication when see you get it. They give her 3 meals a day. They also , help with her bathing, washing her clothes and cleaning her rooms...

My Mom just moved to Jenni-Lynn at a difficult time following the recent death of her husband. The staff has comforted her through this difficult period and helped ease the transition. My Mom always comments on the great staff members and the excellent food. JL really makes the residents feel at home. Paula was invaluable to me as I tried to find a warm, caring place for my Mom. Many thanks to Paula and her staff.

This facility is run by the most unprofessional people. The rooms are small and not cleaned well at all. There is only a couple staff members on duty after 5:00 on Friday until Monday morning. The staff is not friendly with residents or visitors. The food is horrible. Mostly carbs are served daily and the extra food is taken by staff so if the resident is a late sleeper and misses meal times they are told kitchen is closed. They do have a canteen area where the residents can get juice or soda. F...

I was only at Jenni-Lynn for a small amount of time because I found out they were changing to a non-smoking policy for both employees and recipients, so they wouldn't take the person I'm looking for a place because he is a smoker. But, it was just a really nice experience when I visited. The place was nicely decorated and clean. It was beautiful. The rooms were great, it has been updated. The room you furnish yourself, whatever you want to bring. The people were friendly too.

My mom lived at Jenni-Lynn Senior Living for about three years. It was one of the cleanest places we found. There was good security for the residents because an alarm went off if they accidentally left to wander. However, the floor staff seemed uneducated when they handled the residents. And the price increased every six months under the new director. Those were the negative side of the facility.

My grandmother spent several years in Jenni Lynn Assisted Living in those last golden years. She often gave praise, made comments and even complained on occasion, but that was her right. I made it up there when I could, as did other family members, so she didn't have too much to complain about. When it comes to praise I think of several things I experienced, and maybe a few other feelings, though nothing too negative. When first visiting there was no avoiding the greeters at the door. Not p...
